Ταῦτα αἱ ὄψεις προεδήλουν ἐκεῖναι; ταῦτα τῶν ἀστέρων ὁ ἀριθμός; ταῦτα τὰ δράγματα; Ποῦ τὰ τῶν ἐπαγγελιῶν; ποῦ τὰ τῶν ὑποσχέσεων; Ἆρα ἠπατήμαι; ἆρα παρελογίσθην; πῶς γάρ με λοιπὸν προσκυνήσουσιν οἱ ἀδελφοί, τὸν δοῦλον, τὸν αἰχμάλωτον, τὸν δεσμώτην, τὸν μοιχὸν εἶναι νομιζόμενον, τὸν περὶ τῶν ἐσχάτων κινδυνεύοντα, τὸν τοσοῦτον αὐτῶν ἀπῳκισμένον; Οἴχεται πάντα ἐκεῖνα καὶ ἀπόλωλεν. Οὐδὲν τούτων οὐκ εἶπεν, οὐκ ἐνενόησεν, ἀλλ' ἀνέμενε τὸ τέλος, εἰδὼς καὶ αὐτὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ τὸ εὐμήχανον καὶ τὴν σοφίαν τὴν εὔπορον· καὶ οὐ μόνον οὐκ ἐσκανδαλίζετο, ἀλλὰ καὶ ἐνηβρύνετο καὶ ἐκαλλωπίζετο τοῖς γινομένοις.
